Do you need Dietary Supplements? Scientists now know that foods alone cannot supply you the higher levels of nutrients needed.
Like the nutrients that enhance your mental function or mood. Even the nutrients that offer you protection from cancer, heart disease, birth defects, bone fractures, mental decline and aging.
About half of American consumers now use supplements, according to recent surveys. As astonishing and unbelievable as this may be, more than a third of our middle class American children and the vast majority of adults are severely malnourished. Both groups eating for taste, cost and convenience.
A good diet is your basic foundation for better health. The generally accepted balanced diet or mistakenly accepted standards of RDAs are not adequate to prevent chronic malnutrition.
You should eat natural whole foods rich in a variety of nutrients to maintain good health. Equally important for optimum nutrition, these nutrients should be supplied in the right proportions. Today more than ever supplementing your diet is simply necessary, if you hope to experience optimum health.
Normal nutrition may seem adequate. Most of life on this planet can survive with less than optimal levels of nutrition. However when an effort is made to optimize your nutrition, by providing more than what is just normal or adequate, your life wil become significantly better, healthier and longer.
Scientific studies have proven that good diets with generous nutrient intakes can help optimize your health and protect you against serious diseases. It seems the "well balanced diet" is at best a prescription for mediocrity! This should be your first step toward greater nutritional awareness. Next is the adoption of other healthy lifestyle choices.
Dietary supplements are not meant to replace your diet and no supplement can do this. The best advice on the use of dietary supplements is to first establish a healthful diet. Then supplement your diet responsibly, based on your individual personal needs and lifestyle.
Think Wellness!
